Refining Qi starts from repairing the panel.

Chapter 194 Integration, Changes in the Battle Situation
Immortal-level creatures died one after another, and a terrifying atmosphere of death and silence filled the entire star field.

Broken mountains, rivers, lakes and seas often fall out from the fragments of space, originating from unknown small worlds.

From the time Pei Hengxing showed up to the time he killed three True Immortal-level creatures in a row, it took only a dozen breaths. No one could react at all.

There was deathly silence above the Heavenly Gate, and then a shocking wave erupted. The cultivators from all realms who were left within the coverage of the magic circle began to flee frantically towards the outside of the Heavenly Gate.

In this kind of cosmic battlefield, once the commander is killed, if they continue to fight to the death, they will be dying in vain.

If they fall into the hands of the Immortal Alliance, they will have no chance of survival and only death.

The counterattack when one is at the end of one's rope is often extremely powerful. Some monks of the Immortal Alliance were caught off guard and suffered considerable casualties.

Soon, the True Immortal returned and took action personally. In just a moment, all the heretics in the Heavenly Gate were killed, leaving no one alive. The unrest was quickly suppressed.

Geng Yiyang returned from the starry sky and searched everywhere for Chu Zheng's trace. Soon, he found Chu Zheng.

He didn't breathe a sigh of relief until he confirmed that Chu Zheng was safe and sound. The shot from the warship just now was terrified. Even if a true immortal was hit by it, he would die on the spot. Countless cultivators lost their physical bodies because of this, leaving only the divine infants to survive.

Soon, the Immortal Alliance began to arrange monks to clean up the battlefield and repair the broken magic array. At the same time, they summoned monks who were good at alchemy and casting to start refining spiritual bodies.

The 'spiritual body' is the shell that monks who have lost their physical bodies rely on, and its structure is extremely special.

Using divine iron as bones and plants and magical medicines as flesh and blood, one can achieve another kind of resurrection. However, it is difficult for this kind of cultivator to transform their physical body in the future, and their hope of surviving the immortal calamity is already slim.

The upper limit has been set. The best outcome for these cultivators is to once again make military achievements for the Immortal Alliance on the battlefield and benefit their descendants for future generations, which means that their path to immortality has come to an end.

As for taking over another body and being reborn, it is too difficult for a cultivator of the immortal path.

The energy of the souls in the Divine Infant Realm and even in the Divine Transformation and Tongxuan Secret Realms is too powerful for the mortal body to bear. And the vitality of a completely dead body has been drained away and cannot be used as a shell.

Even if you spend a lot of effort and find a suitable body, if the fluctuations of your soul are inconsistent with the true spirit nurtured by the physical body, it will produce an immune rejection reaction. Even if you are lucky enough to enter the realm of immortal tribulation, you will never be able to enter the door of true immortality.

In the concept of immortal cultivators, taking over another body and being reborn can only be regarded as a way to save life when there is no other choice. It is not as convenient as the "spiritual body". At least it is clean and has not been polluted by the souls of others.

Chu Zheng took the initiative to apply to join the team cleaning up the battlefield, and then calmly released Elder Taixuan and Song Yusang in the small world.

All kinds of debris and fragments on the battlefield are rare treasures to him. These are at least the remnants of top-grade magic weapons. One day, they will shine again in his hands.

While Chu Zheng was busy cleaning up the battlefield, Pei Hengxing had already taken a step forward and stepped onto the Heavenly Gate.

Although the Immortal Alliance won this time, the losses above the Heavenly Gate were not a small number. Whether it was the dead monks, the collapsed magic arrays, or the scattered star fragments, it would take a long time to make up for them.

The Heavenly Gate spans tens of millions of miles, and the magic arrays are stacked one after another. It was not built overnight. It is obviously a finished product from the Immortal Alliance, which was directly pulled over and then further expanded.

After confirming that there were no alien creatures alive above the Heavenly Gate, the remaining two True Immortals went straight up to meet them.

Seeing this scene, Chu Zheng moved closer calmly, with a slight flash of light in his pupils, looking at the two surviving True Immortals.

[Kuang Tianxian (Eighth Level): Cultivated to be a Nine Tribulations True Immortal, possessed a spiritual sword body, possessed an innate sword spirit, an inspector of the Immortal Alliance, a pure-blooded immortal descendant, has passed through nine major tribulations, has a small world within him, and has one foot in the realm of the Immortal Venerable.]

[Yan Fusheng (Eighth Level): He has reached the level of an Eight Tribulations True Immortal, the Supervisor of the Immortal Alliance, a mixed-blood immortal, has passed through eight major tribulations, has a small world within him, has been severely injured, and has evil energy leaking out of his body.]

The cultivation base of these two True Immortals is much higher than Chu Zheng had expected. In the realm of True Immortals, they are almost at the end, and the realm of Immortal Lord is within reach.

As both are inspectors of the Immortal Alliance, there are slight differences in the information of these two people. One is of pure-blooded immortal descent, and the other is of mixed-blooded immortal descent.

Thinking of this, Chu Zheng's eyes narrowed slightly and he found something wrong. He could no longer tell the level of the immortal bones of these true immortals.

In other words, when one reaches the realm of True Immortal, one's entire body is made of immortal bones, and cultivation no longer relies on the bone behind the head, but is related to deeper bloodlines.

The bloodline of a true immortal can radiate and affect one's own family, and perhaps it is also related to the blood of the immortals.

"My name is Kuang Tianxian. May I ask your honorable name, fellow Taoist?"

Kuang Tianxian put away his magic sword and bowed to Pei Heng with a serious look:

"Thank you for the help from Wudian this time. You have saved countless immortal cultivators this time. Your merits are immeasurable. I will definitely repay you handsomely in the future!"

If Pei Heng fails to come to this battle, the Immortal Alliance will surely be defeated. The combat power sent by the heavens and myriad worlds this time is far more abundant than that of the Immortal Alliance.

Once the retreat begins, all the surrounding worlds, big and small, will be looted no matter what their conditions are.

Moreover, the way of martial arts is different from the way of immortality. It is a way of abundant qi and blood. When fighting with others, what is consumed is not magic power, but one's own qi and blood. Those who fight too much in their lives often have a short life.

The fact that Wu Dian was willing to help the Immortal Alliance quell the rebellion this time has already made the Immortal Alliance owe it a lot of favors.

"Fellow Daoist Kuang is too polite. My surname is Pei, and my master gave me the name Hengxing. Since we are allies of the Wudian Immortal Alliance, we should advance and retreat together to resist foreign enemies."

Pei Hengxing shook his head, clasped his fists and saluted, then said slowly:
"The gap in the starry sky barrier has been repaired. There should be no more creatures from the heavens and the myriad worlds crossing the boundary in the future. Two deputy hall masters of my martial arts hall have gone to the heavens and the myriad worlds to investigate the cause of this war. I believe the results will be reported back soon."

The luck of all the heavens and worlds combined is only 30%, which is far less than that of the Immortal Alliance Martial Palace.

Luck is the manifestation of strength. As long as they have time, with the huge gap of 10% in luck, there will be no accidents in this battle. It is only a matter of time before the two paths of immortal and martial arts win.

The current battle situation is at a disadvantage, simply because the Immortal Alliance Martial Hall hastily engaged in the battle. In addition, there has been some instability in the universe recently, with evil demons moving around. The Immortal Kings, Immortal Venerables and Martial Arts Saints who are guarding the various heavenly gates are unable to extricate themselves, so they are a little confused for the time being.

Despite the obvious lack of strength, the heavens and all worlds are still going to war. It must be that some earth-shaking event has happened.

Upon hearing the news that the starry sky barrier had been re-sealed, Kuang Tianxian and Yan Fusheng were obviously relieved.

"That's good."

Kuang Tianxian's brows relaxed a lot: "It seems that this battle is not a bad thing for us, the immortal and martial arts."

As long as the gap is blocked, the supply line of the heavens and myriad worlds will be cut off, and there will be no more endless invasions of evil demons from outside the domain. If this continues, it will be just around the corner to break into the world of the heavens.

Pushing the battlefield to the scope of the heavens and myriad worlds is good news for both immortal and martial cultivators. At least they will have room to advance and retreat.

"Fellow Daoist Kuang is right. The myriad worlds are so elusive and difficult to trace. This time, the myriad worlds have taken the initiative to start a war. We can take this opportunity to fight for our share of the destiny."

Pei Hengxing looked calm and nodded, saying: "If we can get another ounce of luck, our Martial Palace and Immortal Alliance will be able to follow the example of the ancient sages and start a war of Taoism, thus deciding the fate of the world in one battle." Pei Hengxing did not hide anything when he spoke, and many cultivators around heard his words. For a moment, the atmosphere above the entire Heavenly Gate became much more relaxed.

"The battle of destiny is not that simple."

Kuang Tianxian shook his head, his eyes slightly focused:

"Although the myriad worlds only have 30% of the destiny, the Taoist ancestor alone has 25% of it. If this person stands on the side of the myriad worlds or the myriad worlds, how can my two ways of immortality and martial arts have a chance of winning?"

Upon hearing the name of Daozu, Pei Hengxing's expression became much more solemn and he did not speak again.

All along, the Martial Palace Immortal Alliance did not dare to make any big moves against the heavens and myriad worlds because they were afraid of the existence of the Taoist Ancestor. The destiny brought by one person is enough to suppress an Tao. Since the ancient times, there has only been such a person.

If the Taoist Patriarch stands on the side of the myriad worlds, then the fortune of the myriad worlds will reach 55%. If a Taoist war breaks out, both the Immortal Alliance and the Martial Palace will most likely end up dead.

Even if the two joined forces and used forbidden means to conquer the Chaos Sea and obtain the last half of the luck, it would only be 45%.

Once the war starts, the best outcome will be the same as in ancient times, when time and space are destroyed, yin and yang are in chaos, and the chaotic universe is reopened, completely burying this section of ancient history in an unknown realm, and ending it in nothingness.

Precisely because of the example in the ancient times, the Immortal and Martial Dao Alliance has not dared to make any major moves for millions of years, but has been secretly tracking the whereabouts of the Taoist Ancestor.

In order to deal with Daozu, they have studied for millions of years. No one knows the dangers of the path of Qi Refiner better than the Immortal Alliance Martial Palace.

Before this, every time Daozu experienced a calamity, he was surrounded by dangers. Such a lowly method of transforming into an incarnation to avoid calamity was of no use at all to a Qi cultivator at Daozu's level.

After all, Daozu is alone. No matter how strong he is, he is just one person. If the two sects of Xian and Wu join forces, there is still hope that they can kill him. Moreover, the Heavenly Dao will also help them.

One person monopolizing 25% of destiny has already threatened the entire universe.

If Daozu's cultivation continues to grow, the heaven will change its master.

The person that the person who is most wanted to kill in this starry sky above our heads is Daozu.

…………

…………

Above the Heavenly Gate, Chu Zheng stared at Pei Hengxing quietly, thoughts surging in his mind. He could kill creatures of the same level without any effort. This kind of combat power was truly terrifying.

This was the strongest martial arts practitioner he had ever seen.

Having both reached the eighth level of perfection, Kuang Tianxian and Yan Fusheng seemed to be overwhelmed when they joined forces to fight against those creatures from the heavens and myriad worlds.

Pei Hengxing only used two punches and one palm strike to kill three creatures that were comparable to true immortals.

Since he first embarked on the path of cultivation, Chu Zheng has always been exposed to the way of immortals, and he has always lacked a concrete impression of the way of martial arts.

Now, the appearance of Pei Hengxing has undoubtedly helped him fill this vacancy.

The combat power of those who practice martial arts is probably much stronger than that of ordinary practitioners, otherwise there wouldn't be such a big gap.

From what Pei Hengxing and Kuang Tianxian said just now, Chu Zheng could also taste something else. There could be no absolute balance between the Martial Palace and the Immortal Alliance.

If one day the heavens collapse and myriad worlds are destroyed, sooner or later there will be a battle between the immortals and the warriors.

By then, the winner will hold 70% of the luck. Even if Daozu alone holds 25%, he will have no choice but to sit and wait for death.

After pondering for a moment, Chu Zheng didn't think any more about it. He turned around and continued to clean up the Tianguan, collecting all the fragments he could see.

He only needs to know that the current situation on the entire battlefield is gradually improving for the Immortal Alliance and the Martial Palace, and that is enough.

At least this is good news for him. At least he doesn't have to take the risk of blending into the Ten Thousand Worlds camp.

Just because the Immortal Alliance is not a good place to stay doesn't mean that the Myriad Worlds are a good place to go. The situation there is chaotic and there are too many unknowns. It is normal for things to happen that are beyond control.

Thinking of this, Chu Zheng's gaze fell on the distant starry sky, where immortal blood mixed with fragments of various artifacts were floating under the starry sky.

These fragments of True Immortal-level relics are truly priceless treasures to him.

…………

…………

It took several days for the entire Heavenly Gate to be restored to its previous appearance. Most of the flying star fragments were brought back and re-melted into the Heavenly Gate.

A small portion of the fragments have disappeared without a trace. No one knows where they were swept away by the aftermath of the fight between the True Immortals, and they are no longer in the nearby star field.

The broken magic array patterns inside the Heavenly Gate will take some time to repair and it cannot be done in a day.

After dealing with the matters above the Heavenly Gate, the Immortal Alliance began to organize monks to clean up this star field.

The remains of several true immortals who had fallen in the Immortal Alliance had been collected long ago, and between the shattered star fields, only traces left by the creatures of the heavens and myriad worlds remained.

Most of the creatures at the True Immortal level have their own caves and heavens. Although most of them have collapsed and been buried in the turbulence of the void, some of them have remained and can make up for some of the losses in the heavenly gates.

The magic array originally arranged in the starry sky also requires some monks to reorganize the magic array structure.

Chu Zheng naturally joined the team cleaning up the battlefield, searching for all valuable broken objects with extremely focused attention, not missing any corner.

Any fragments that fall into his hands will become treasures no less valuable than fairy treasures in the future. It never hurts to save some wealth in advance.

Soon, Chu Zheng collected a few fragments in his hands.

However, to his surprise, the Immortal Alliance seemed to value these fragments very much, and even specially arranged for cultivators in the Immortal Tribulation Realm to guard them to prevent anyone from hiding them.

Not only the fragments of rare treasures, but also those things that fell from the fragments of the world will be personally checked by the cultivators from the Immortal Alliance, and then carefully recorded to ensure that nothing is missed.
